Prof Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang addressing attendants at the TEIN App launch on Monday.
The 2020 running mate of former President John Mahama, Prof Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, says that she is waiting with bated breath for the definition of ‘review’ as would be applied to government’s flagship programmes.
She said it will be good to know how government would review the Senior High School programme.
“When we said ‘review’ others said we were going to cancel. Today, we are waiting for the definition of review from the ‘Black Dictionary’ since that is the source that they use for many things,” she said at the launch of TEIN App on Monday.
Earlier on the same day, the Information Minister, Kojo Oppong-Nkrumah revealed that all 16 flagship programmes of government will soon be reviewed to ensure their objectives are well achieved.
According to him, it is one of the decisions taken during the three-day cabinet retreat at the Peduase Lodge in the Eastern Region to mitigate the economic difficulties in the country.
Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, however could not comprehend why the same people who alleged that former President John Mahama meant ‘cancel’ when he used the word ‘review’ want to do what they once criticised.
